Thermokarst acceleration in Arctic tundra driven by climate change and fire disturbance

Published:December 2021

Author(s):Yaping Chen, Mark J. Lara, Benjamin M. Jones, Gerald V. Frost, Feng Sheng Hu

Publisher:One Earth

This study identifies climate change as the principal driver of all thermokarst formed during 1950–2015 and predicts that climate change and wildfire will synergistically accelerate thermokarst as the Arctic transitions in this century.Read More →

New climate models reveal faster and larger increases in Arctic precipitation than previously projected

Published:November 2021

Author(s):Michelle R. McCrystall, Julienne Stroeve, Mark Serreze, Bruce C. Forbes, & James A. Screen

Publisher:Nature Communications

This study demonstrates that the transition from a snow- to rain-dominated Arctic in the summer and autumn is projected to occur decades earlier and at a lower level of global warming than previously thought.Read More →
